Not to sound mean, but what problems? Maybe I’m seeing this show through rose-colored glasses but in my opinion, outside of the last episode and the recap, this show is almost flawless. It´s so much expositive, I barely needed to think, which is not necessarily bad overall, but it is in this case since the anime use a lot of symbolism, after the first episode, it basically turned into a battle shounen, every ep was -enter de dreamworld-break the egg-protect the girl-kill the monster-repeat-, the suicide girls are all bland since they don´t have time to develop them and some of theirs reasons are ridiculous, for example, "I did it so I could be with my idol" or "I did it to preserve my beauty", how am I supposed to feel empathy? Talking about empathy, the show tries so hard to provoke it that it use cheap tricks, for example, the character design, why cute girls? Well, the show gives an explaination, but it´s not a good one, and of course, the shock factor, it´s somewhat exploitative since it use heavy themes to hide it´s poor writing, the main characters are average, Ai is alright and Rika is good, but the other ones......It´s faster to say I didn´t like them since the text is kinda big now. Also didn´t like the design of the monsters, some of them are pretty lame like the "hair" monsters, Madoka did much better, and since I mentioned it, this show is very influenced by Madoka, but does everything worse(imo). The plot twist at the final episodes were pretty bad(imo), especially Frill`s story, but holy shit, this is even bigger now, I think that´s it. I definitely agree with you, character design & animation carried the series, the score should be atleast 7.90 -7.95 the story is a bit messed up they should stick with magical themes not the Sci-Fi plot twist.[/Normie_Simpleton said:JVFE said:It´s so much expositive, I barely needed to think, which is not necessarily bad overall, but it is in this case since the anime use a lot of symbolism, after the first episode, it basically turned into a battle shounen, every ep was -enter de dreamworld-break the egg-protect the girl-kill the monster-repeat-, the suicide girls are all bland since they don´t have time to develop them and some of theirs reasons are ridiculous, for example, "I did it so I could be with my idol" or "I did it to preserve my beauty", how am I supposed to feel empathy?

The Sci-fi part is messed up, it simply doesn’t make sense, what kind of organization would leave an experiment like Frill on the hands of 2 idiots that the show tries to sell as genius? They literally just abandon her, what a nice idea, creating an artificial girl to treat like a puppy, what could go wrong? Then, when things go wrong, they beat her phisically twice, yeah, genius. |
